Overview
The SFCV Angra Mainyu (K1-24),a Conquistador-class Corvette, was dispatched ahead of the Third Fleet to scout the Alendiel System, and ensure no surprises awaited the fleet. On it's emergence from its point singularity jump, the Angra Mainyu was forced to flee ahead of a Warrior-class destroyer assigned to the System Defense Force (SDF). Unable and unwilling to jump out of the system yet, the captain of the Angra Mainyu proceeded in-system in an effort to put asteroids and debris between his vessel and the chasing destroyer. The Angra Mainyu inadvertently stumbled into the staging point for three CAMFA Auxiliary Cruisers, which were receiving upgrades at one of the renegade SDF outposts. The three cruisers began to attack the Angra Mainyu, which returned fire doing severe damage. The Angra Mainyu managed to do severe damage to the three cruisers, before the chasing destroyer caught up and damaged the Angra Mainyu's engines, preventing it from fleeing. As the other vessels closed in, the crew of the Angra Mainyu began locking down their vessel's systems, putting lockouts on them to prevent them from being used the enemy, as they began gathering small arms.
After a half hour of intense fighting, the crew of the Angra Mainyu had been killed or disabled, and the vessel captured.
